User Experience
Analytics
Collaboration
Choice
Trust
Value
Reimagined experience with process-driven user interface via desktop, mobile, or tablet that streamlines processes and enables users to achieve firm outcomes
Real-time dashboards, reporting, Excel connectivity to Microsoft CRM database with BI, data mining, “what-if” modeling and data visualization with PowerBI
Enterprise-class social collaboration (Office 365, SharePoint, Skype, Lync, Yammer) with presence/IM, screen sharing, click-to-communicate, and conversation archiving
Online, on premise, or hybrid with mix and match licensing choice and flexibility
Contractual privacy protections via European Model Clauses, regional company owned datacenters, transparency in data privacy and operations, financially-backed SLAs
Low list price $65 with additional value including InsideView (US) MS Social Listening, and lower add – on costs (data storage $120/GB/year)
Traditional form-based user interface over a decade old, navigate by scrolling and app flipping, Office integration with compromise
Static dashboards that require refreshes, export (not connect) to Excel, report view and record download limitations, no advanced BI, data mining, or “what-if” analysis
Chatter lacks presence across the enterprise, audit logs, IM timestamps, screen sharing, click to communicate, CRM license required for everyone to see relevant opportunities / cases
Online only with inflexible licensing (one SKU per instance)
No signature commitment to EU model clauses, leased data centers only in US and Asia, no transparency in operations and data access, no financially-backed SLAs
High list price $300 / $125 / $65 with hidden costs such as Data.com $125 add-on, data storage $3,000/GB/year and expensive Radian6 for social listening
Microsoft CRM/xRM4Legal differentiation against Salesforce.com
